Darkness Falls: They mostly come out at night...

'Lo again!

I tried out the farmer class and am a little unsure on the details of farming - the journal entry doesn't seem to be working, with the text displaying whatever I previously had selected in the journal.

Is there a reason to use the farm plot block instead of hoeing the ground? At first I thought the hoe was farmer exclusive while the plot was what everyone else used, but then I noticed the plot also requires a recipe or farmer perk.

I kinda disliked how expensive the block was at first, but came to like how it affected my gameplay. The plot requires a bunch of resources from corpses, so it encouraged me to go out and fight zombies in order to expand my farm. I wouldn't even mind if it was the main method for farming... but with the hoe, plot blocks seem to be unnecessary. Or do they have some long term advantage, like growing plants faster or not needing water?

 
I love this mod! The most fun I've had in a game since....Fallout 3!

my 3rd playthrough, first 2 times were on Nitrogen maps...this time on the #1 Med map (which was also Nitrogen I think)

so far, so great! I'm on the latest experimental 2.51 b2 and wondering why I need to use Debug Mode to re-stock the trader inventory/quests?

I didn't after updating and it seems OK, but maybe I'm missing something...

Thank you for all the work you put into this. I really enjoy the progression, build up and balance of challenge and reward.

 
Hey guys,

I'm resetting my dedicated server. After learning about pre-gen is the way to play this mod. (Which Dfalls-Small should I play?)

We are playing on bluefangserver. They recommend playing on server map 8192 x 8192 or smaller. They charge $30 a month for map 12k or bigger. (not sure if my 4-6 player server will ever explore more than 8k of map)

Is there any server setting you recommend to play on? I normally play everything on default. Except for bloodmoon since we keep getting wipe after bloodmoon day 21.

<property name="GameDifficulty" value="2"/> <!-- 0 - 5, 0=easiest, 5=hardest -->

<property name="XPMultiplier" value="100" /> <!-- XP gain multiplier (percentage in whole numbers) -->

<property name="DayNightLength" value="60" /> <!-- real time minutes per in game day: 60 minutes -->

<property name="DayLightLength" value="18" /> <!-- in game hours the sun shines per day: 18 hours day light per in game day -->

property name="MaxSpawnedZombies" value="75" /> <!-- This setting covers the entire map. There can only be this many zombies on the entire map at one time.

<property name="MaxSpawnedAnimals" value="50" /> <!-- If your server has a large number of player

<property name="BloodMoonEnemyCount" value="5" /> <!-- This is the number of zombies that can be alive (spawned at the same time) at any time PER PLAYER during a blood moon

<property name="LootAbundance" value="100" /> <!-- percentage in whole numbers -->

<property name="LootRespawnDays" value="32" /> <!-- days in whole numbers -->

<property name="AirDropFrequency" value="72"/> <!-- How often airdrop occur in game-hours, 0 == never -->

<property name="AirDropMarker" value="false"/> <!-- Sets if a marker is added to map/compass for air drops. -->

Thanks!

 
not sure if this is Darkness Falls related...

On Horde night (98 onwards) I'm getting the occassional "ArgumentException: the object you want to instantiate is null" in the consol as well as "WRN [AugioLog] AudioManager::AudioData::Play() failed to load audio source object for AudioSource_CreatureSenseAlert". Am I the only one? Also interspersed is INF Discarding NetPackagePlayerStats for entiry Id=72718 and 72669

Quitting the main menu results in a NullReferenceException Spam in the consol until finally exiting the game.

 
what are the Trader Faction Books used for? better pricing? I've had 3-4 so far, Jen and Joel...read Jen twice but didn't notice a difference

(I will eventually figure it out...but maybe this has something to do with not DB-resetting them?)

 
he is some experimenting im doing over a 9 day period. The middle one was my first build, third one was second (neither got any water over a 4 day period.) The first pic was my latest try it had water but still no crops building. :(

Do the plants close to the rain barrel grow? The ones on the outside probably won't because that isn't enough water for the whole crop. But let us know if the ones close to the water are growing.

Those look like farm plots which I have only use with the irrigation system not a rain barrel actually. Have you tried your system with only fertilized dirt (using the hoe to till)? That could be your problem.

ahhh so...

thanks Dethar!

I was looking for a reset all command

the trader books are a new feature that might make more sense when I reset them(?!)

it's part of the new experimental update/build...from DF discord "Traders now reward items that grant the player faction with JUST that trader"

I think the "books" are there because I didn't reset. Will try tomorrow.

 
Thanks!

We found one of them last night. Great gaming session.

Picked up some laser weapons (swords & pistols), which was great, but there was no Laser Multi-Tool in the work bench. Was there supposed to be? Also, we scraped the place clean but didn't find one in a bench or container either.

Was there something we were supposed to do with the blue portal? We destroyed it, and somehow it got into my buddies inventory. He placed it back down and interacted with it and it disappeared for good.

So, still without the laser multi-tool.

Hi there! New to the forum here! I was just wondering, were you able to find the bunker in a corner of the map? If so, which corner?

We were able to find them both.

**SPOILERS BELOW**

They were located in the northwest and southeast corners. Superfun.

 
Hello I am playing on 18.4 experimenttal on dfmedium2 map and am wondering:

- as mining xp(when it come to player level) been removed from the mod?

- is it normal that my trader can once again sell high end vehicle part like motorcycle or 4 x 4 parts, I'm curious if that is something that related to the war of the walkers mod I was playing before I decided to re-install darkness-falls.

 
Vanilla buildings can't be added to the map generator? The whole map is filled with boring houses. Especially infuriating are these Japanese old buildings everywhere. I want a zombie Apocalypse in the city of megapolis with high-rise buildings, but all around these old houses from Japan. Even in Japan, these buildings are only in the Museum.

 
I've found the little bunker already but no luck finding the big bunker for 3 in game days already. Any advice? Or coordinates for the large dfalls map?

ha!

I don't find "that" many...but there are a bunch

you can totally create your own prefab list using Nitrogen...

(edit out anything Asian if you want!)

and also make mega citys that cover the entire map ;)

Just make sure you start from the custom DF prefablist.txt file

along with the mod provided Prefabs folder content in your steam install directory when creating the RWG map

no more undead sushi for you!

Thanks for the reply. Every single one says seed none say growing. The irrigation system I thought was a higher level then a plain rain catcher. Didnt try dirt cause I thought I read they need to be in plots now.

Thank you so much! We've been searching for days IRL LOL

Is it IN the city or a little bit away from it? Sorry, I know this is kind of cheating lol but we're so exhausted from searching in the giant map haha
